The Children of Pentecost by Chet Nichols The story of Christianity has many great stories that make up its tradition, the greatest, of course, is the story of the events that led up to the fulfillment of The Passion of Christ. Now, during Christ's ministry on earth, He told His Disciples and Apostles that at some point they would be able to perform the miracles that He performed and that they would inherit these gifts and have the opportunity to use them to help people. After Christ's crucifixion and death, His Apostles and Disciples gathered in the upper room where they had shared The Last Supper with Jesus and where they had been betrayed by one of Jesus' most trusted apostles, Judas. Sadly, Judas' betrayal leads to his own demise, BUT not before he tries and fails to save Jesus from his awaiting Passion. After Christ's death, He appeared to his Apostles and Disciples in this upper room and told them that He was "leaving" and that they should follow Him. He told them that once He was gone, they should return to the upper room and wait for The Advocate, The Holy Spirit, to come. They followed Jesus to a mountaintop and witnessed His Ascension, after which, they returned to the upper room and waited. Ten days later, The Holy Spirit appeared to the Apostles and Disciples on Pentecost and bestowed on them the gifts of tongues, healing, enlightenment and more. The Apostles and Disciples use of these gifts is well documented in The Acts Of The Apostles in The New Testament. Because of this series of events, it is widely accepted that Pentecost was the "beginning of The Christian Church". But, what happened to these gifts? Was there the potential for these gifts to be passed on to the descendents of The Apostles and Disciples? And, if so, who would they be, how would the gifts be used and how would the gifts be passed on? These are some of the some of the questions that weave through The Children of Pentecost. The story depicts the saga of the descendents of the original Apostles and Disciples (including Judas) as they deal with these revered "Gifts Of Pentecost". The story follows the descendants from the time of Christ, through the Middle Ages and into present time, where they face the demons that hunt and haunt them, do battle with them and, eventually, fulfill their destiny. In the story presented, the descendants have been culled down to just a few remaining families and family members, who the devil and his minions are feverishly hunting down and trying to wipe out. To hide the remaining family members and especially the hero of the story, the family and their supporters play an fervent and deadly game of cat and mouse with the devil. They have learned to play a winning game of deception and deceit with the "master of deception and deceit"... himself. Still, the devil and, in particular, one of the devil's most powerful demons, are beginning to win the battles. This demon is a powerful and ancient demon who initially "inspired" Judas to betray Jesus in the first place and one who has hunted down the descendants of the apostles since the time of Christ. This demon's presence has been documented since before the time of Christ in the Middle East. So, what happens? Read on.......
